It can quickly boost performance of your computer and is easy to use. Also it can defragment your disks automatically so you won’t need to take care about that yourself. UltraDefrag has the following features: • automatic defragmentation • fast and efficient defragmentation algorithms • safe environment preventing files corruption • detailed file fragmentation reports • defragmentation of individual files/folders • defragmentation of locked system files • defragmentation of NTFS metafiles (including MFT) and streams • exclusion of files by path, size and number of fragments • fully configurable disk optimization • disk processing time limit • defragmentation of disks having the specified fragmentation level • automatic hibernation or shutdown after the job completion • multilingual graphical interface (over 60 languages available) • one click defragmentation via Windows Explorer’s context menu • powerful command line interface • easy to use portable edition • full support of 64-bit editions of Windows UltraDefrag can defragment both FAT and NTFS disks with just a couple of restrictions: • It cannot defragment FAT directories, because their first clusters are immovable. • It cannot defragment master file tables (MFT), because their first 16 clusters are immovable. However, the program optimizes those files placing their fragments as close to each other as possible. UltraDefrag can be used on Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10 as well as Windows Server 2003/2008/2012/2016. Older versions of the program (prior to v7) can be used on Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 as well, with some limitations. Additionally UltraDefrag for Linux exists which is an independent port of the program based on NTFS-3G capabilities. 4 Introduction Disk processing methods There are three disk processing methods available: defragmentation, quick optimization and full optimization. In the initial phase of the disk processing the program analyzes the disk gathering information about files and free space gaps. Then, depending on the selected method, the program either defragments the disk or performs its optimization. Defragmentation joins fragments together eliminating the fragmentation problem. Full optimization moves all small files and fragments to the end of the disk to release space in the beginning. Then it moves files back, sorted by a user defined criteria, to speed up access to groups of small files. By default files are sorted by path in ascending order. Additionally FAT directories and NTFS master file tables get optimized as mentioned above. Quick optimization is the same but it skips already sorted out files. There are a lot of options available to control the process. Refer to the Graphical Interface chapter of this handbook for detailed information. Web resources Everything related to the program can be found at UltraDefrag Website. Generated by Doxygen Chapter 3 Installation The latest version of the program can be obtained at UltraDefrag Website. Note You must be an administrator to install and run UltraDefrag. The installation process is pretty straightforward, only one thing deserves to be mentioned. During startup the program sends a bit of usage statistics to the Google Analytics service. It helps us to understand better your needs. However, you may turn this feature off during the installation. Also a special portable edition of UltraDefrag is available. It can be copied to a USB stick and then used without installation. However, you have to run the installer once to prepare all the necessary files. Just check Extract portable edition on the components selection page and Show extracted portable edition on the finish page during the installation. The portable edition includes all the features except a few: it cannot be used to set up automatic defragmentation, it does not include the boot time interface and it cannot be used to defragment individual files/folders from the Windows Explorer’s context menu. Silent mode UltraDefrag can be installed silently (without graphical dialogs) using additional command line switches: /S Install the program silently. /NAME=fnameg Your username. /PASSWORD=fpasswordg Your password. /FULL=1 Install all the components. /MICRO=1 Install the console and boot time interfaces only. /GUI=(1j0) Install or remove the graphical interface. 6 Installation /CONSOLE=(1j0) Install or remove the console interface. /BOOT=(1j0) Install or remove the boot time interface. /AUTODEFRAG=(1j0) Enable or disable automatic defragmentation. /SHELLEXTENSION=(1j0) Install or remove the Explorer’s context menu handler. /HELP=(1j0) Install or remove this handbook. /ICONS=(1j0) Install or remove all the shortcut icons. /STARTMENUICON=(1j0) Install or remove the start menu icon. /DESKTOPICON=(1j0) Install or remove the desktop icon. /QUICKLAUNCHICON=(1j0) Install or remove the quick launch icon. /DISABLE USAGE TRACKING=(1j0) Enable or disable the usage tracking mentioned above. /EXTRACTPE=(1j0) Extract or remove portable edition of UltraDefrag. /D=fInstallation Folderg Set the installation folder. It must be the last parameter used in the command line and must not contain any quotes, even if the path contains spaces. Only absolute paths are supported. The destination folder must be empty or contain a previous UltraDefrag installation. Note • Both name and password switches are mandatory for silent mode unless you upgrade an existing v9 installation. • The shortcut icons force installation of the graphical interface they depend on. • The same way automatic defragmentation and the Explorer’s context menu handler force installation of the console interface. The following samples illustrate use of the command line switches: Generated by Doxygen 7 :: install everything except of desktop and quick launch icons ultradefrag-8.0.0.exe /S /NAME=Joe /PASSWORD=XXX /FULL=1 /ICONS=0 /STARTMENUICON=1 :: install the console and boot time interfaces only along with this handbook ultradefrag-8.0.0.exe /S /NAME=Joe /PASSWORD=XXX /MICRO=1 /HELP=1 :: remove the boot time interface from the previous installation ultradefrag-8.0.0.exe /S /NAME=Joe /PASSWORD=XXX /BOOT=0 :: change the installation folder ultradefrag-8.0.0.exe /S /NAME=Joe /PASSWORD=XXX /D=H:nSoftwarenUltraDefrag :: uninstall the program silently %UD_INSTALL_DIR%nuninstall.exe /S For troubleshooting omit the /S switch and check the dialogs to ensure that all the parameters are set properly. In case of errors check the following file as well: %TMP%\UltraDefrag_Install.log. Additionally you can use the DebugView program, as shown in the Troubleshooting chapter of this handbook, to collect a bit more debugging information during the installation. Generated by Doxygen 8 Installation Generated by Doxygen Chapter 4 Graphical Interface UltraDefrag GUI is pretty straightforward: you select disks and then either analyze, or defragment, or optimize them. If multiple disks are selected they will be processed one by one. After the job completion you may open a file fragmentation report to check which files are still fragmented and why. If you see locked files in the report it does make sense to perform a boot time defragmentation. Click Action > Boot time defragmentation and select the action you would like to perform. The program will show a reboot confirmation dialog then. Click Reboot now to reboot the computer and start the boot time processing immediately or click Reboot later to process selected disks at the next system reboot. Some files cannot be defragmented even at boot time, but most of them can. To defragment disks automatically click Settings > Preferences, then open the Automatic defragmentation tab, select the disks and click OK. The program will defragment the selected disks from time to time automatically when the computer is idle. Note There is no need to keep UltraDefrag GUI open for the automatic defragmentation to run as the job gets done using a special scheduled task. If the program says some of your disks need to be repaired, select them and click Action > Repair drives. Drives list The top part of the window displays a list of disks available for defragmentation. By default the program skips removable ones (USB sticks and memory cards). Click Action > Skip removable media to set whether they have to be included to the list or not. To refresh the list click Action > Rescan drives. For each disk the program shows the following information: the disk label (if it exists), the disk processing status, the fragmentation level, the total capacity and the amount of free space available on the disk. The program calculates the fragmentation level using the following formula: number of fragments requiring defragmentation fragmentation level = total number of fragments Cluster map The bottom part of the window shows the cluster map of the selected disk. It represents

    KNOWLEDGE TRANSMISSION IN CYBERSPACE Discourse Analysis of Professional Web Forums as Internet Subgenre Cristina Varga TESI DOCTORAL UPF / 2011 DIRECTOR DE LA TESI Dra. Clara Ubaldina Lorda (Departament de Traducció i Ciències del Llenguatge, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona) Dr. Mircea Borcil ă (Catedra de limba și litertura română , Universitatea “Babeş-Bolyai ”, Cluj -Napoca, Romania) Maria, Ioan, Elena and Ştefan, in memoriam ABSTRACT Since the beginning of the Internet, its features have been used to communicate knowledge between researchers in different universities or scientific laboratories, and later, with the increasing growth of the World Wide Web, knowledge became a collective good shared by its users. The current investigation has three main objectives: a) to describe the professional web forum as a discursive subgenre of the web, b) to illustrate the mechanism of knowledge transmission on the professional web forums, and c) to observe the variation across languages of the professional web forum as a subgenre of the knowledge transmission process. In the analysis of the linguistic material of the professional web forum corpus we used a theoretical framework based on different linguistic trends and theories currently developed in France. The analysed material consists in a comparable texts corpus, organised, in five sub-corpora, in function of the language the participants in the web forums use to communicate: English, Spanish, French, Romanian, and Catalan. The analysis of the linguistic material of the professional web forum corpus provides essential information concerning the discursive features of the knowledge transmission process in different languages. RESUMEN El desarrollo de las nuevas tecnologías y el uso del Internet como nueva plataforma para la enseñanza crean nuevas modalidades de interacción comunicativa entre los usuarios de Internet con el fin de aprender, comunicar y transmitir conocimiento.

    DominoDefrag v3.0 Release Notes Sep. 12 Overview DominoDefrag is an open source C API Lotus Domino server task I developed using Visual Studio C++. It uses "contig.exe" (v1.55) to defrag Domino databases on all 32bit and 64bit Windows server versions and will also defrag a full-text index associated with a Notes database and the Domino server’s transaction log and DAOS files. The output is recorded to the Domino server console and miscellaneous events log. DominoDefrag has the added functionality of being able to compact a database prior to defragging and supports multi-processing (can load multiple times to run concurrently) and use of an indirect file (.ind) to have the same compact batch functionality. Performance checks can also be tested using generated document collections to determine the before and after defrag millisecond read performance of databases and their associated full-text indexes. DominoDefrag now incorporates “jkdefragcmd.exe” (v3.36) for Domino data volume free space consolidation and “fast sort” file placement optimization. In conjunction with “contig.exe” and the compact task (ncompact.exe) they provide the functionality outlined below: Order Utility Description 1 jkdefragcmd.exe Consolidates free space (-a5), alphabetically sorts all file placements (-a7) and performs a complete defrag and fast sort optimization (-a3) of the Domino data volume.

  • Troubleshooting Computers
    Troubleshooting Computers There are basic rules of troubleshooting a problem, whether it is a hard drive or any other problem. 1. Identify the problem (gather information from the customer to identify the nature of the problem). o Can customer show you the problem? o How often does the problem occur? o Has any new hardware or software been installed recently? o Does the problem occur in a specific application? 2. Isolate the problem. 3. Correct the problem 4. Verify corrective action taken 5. Document your steps. This is useful for two reasons. For you or others to refer back to on the next possible service call for the same equipment and because you may not be the only one servicing the computer and the next person will need to know what steps you have taken. 6. Follow-up - contact the customer after they take back the equipment and see if they are problem-free. *** Some problems are hard to duplicate, especially intermittent hardware or software problems. Refer to customer's information on exactly what error message or problem occurred, what applications was the customer using, how many applications were open, etc..... Sometimes the computer works fine in the shop. but when the customer takes it back, the problem returns. This is always frustrating to the customer, and technician. Could an externally connected peripheral that the customer has have caused the problem? Communicate with the customer as often as needed. Overheat issues? *** If the laptop or desktop overheats at the customer site but not in the shop, ask if the location the computer is kept is in a area where the air vents could be blocked.
